The Posters of David Lynch

My latest DVD review will be going up this afternoon at Lost in the Movies. In the mean time, stroll through the strange world of David Lynch. Most of the posters are actually not that weird, though the best of them suggest something intangible and haunting beneath the surface.

Yeah, I would agree that the overseas posters for most Lynch films are superior - esp. for WILD AT HEART and FWWM. That being said, I do like the classic simplicity of the BLUE VELVET one. And I always enjoyed the Terrence Malick vibe on THE STRAIGHT STORY poster.

Another intersting topic would be Lynch trailers. The only one that comes to mind is Mulholland Dr. I saw that one on TV and was completely transfixed, though for some reason I never ended up seeing it until it was on DVD. I wonder if the appeal of that ad was down to its own positive qualities, or just that of the movie showing through.
